Joe Biden took months to decide he wouldn’t run for president — but he was sold on Elizabeth Warren as his running mate from the start, people familiar with the situation told POLITICO.
And he still thinks the Massachusetts firebrand would be Hillary Clinton’s best choice to replace him as the nation’s No. 2 in January 2017.
Biden, a stalwart Democrat who has veered leftward in recent years — but, as a centrist senator, voted to scuttle the Glass-Steagall prohibitions on banks engaging in speculative investments — favored Warren because he needed a partner to capture the wave of anti-bank, anti-establishment anger raging to his left.
Warren, a freshman senator from Massachusetts, who supports breaking up the big banks and re-imposing 1930s-era Wall Street regulations to prevent another global financial crisis, was Biden’s “only real choice,” according to an official he spoke to at the time.
Biden — who told an interviewer on Tuesday that he considered running for president because he believed he was “the best” person for the job — took his hat out of the ring in late October 2015, citing the stresses on his family following the death of his son Beau.
But he’s recently told associates that Warren would be an equally smart pick for Hillary Clinton, who has been sharply criticized for refusing to publish the transcripts of her high-paid speeches to the elite banking firm of Goldman Sachs.
Biden, a senior Democratic official said, first mentioned Warren as a possible running mate during his earliest strategy sessions with a team of advisers that included friends Mike Donilon, Steve Richetti and Ted Kaufman; Donilon, the person said, was particularly enthusiastic about it.

I hope she scalps um’..
Two frauds in a pod. Plugs and Fauxcahontas.
Slow Joe and Goofyhontas are warming up in the Dem bullpen.
The smart Dem money knows Crooked Hillary is about to be Trumped.
Now, now. Joe spent big $$ to have his ass hairs stapled to his scalp.
Will never happen. Hillary could not stand to be upstaged that badly.
All this wishful stuff is starting to float up
Looks like the democrats are stirring the cesspool to replace hillary if she or bubba has a “ health crisis”
And we know what floats when you stir the cesspool
Biden keeps managing to look stupider and stupider. It’s no wonder O said he chose Biden as his “job insurance.”
It’s quite possible he may get her - I suspect they’re flying some trial balloons.....Biden making a few comments lately and Goofy Elizabeth baiting Trump.
As Hitlery continues to lose ground against The Donald, they will panic and plot. If they want her out, they will move on an indictment. That’s why they’re dragging their heels on it - they aren’t sure whether or not they’re going to need it yet.
I think Rimshot Joe just wants to get into her pants.
That’s what I was thinking too. All these little Biden stories sound like planned leaks to prepare for him becoming the candidate when Hillary drops/is forced out.

Biden-Warren: Birds of a feather flock together.
This may still be the RAT ticket in November.

I agree.
Who did Martin O’Malley want as his V.P. before is untimely withdrawal from the race?
Let's pray that doesn't come to pass. It would be nearly impossible to beat, even for Trump.
